a Rha 0 Ty One of the more spectacular floats at this year's Santa Claus Parade was the entry from With today's spiraling prices, when you can find a home ap- pliance that pays for itself, that's good news. Such an appliance is a water softener, says the Canadian Wa- ter Quality Association. According to the association, studies show that a family with hard water will spend from $150. to $300. a year more for soap and detergents, water, fuel to heat the water, and damage to the home's plumbing and piping, caused by hard water scale, as compared to a family with soft- ened water. Close to 85 per cent of the country has some kind of water problem that originates not from man-made pollution, but from natural causes. The most com- mon of these is hardness - but Water softener pays for itself there's equipment available to correct the problem. An automatic softener can be installed to remove the minerals that cause hardness before they enter the home's plumbing sys- tem. Water flows through a tank containing resin that removes the minerals. As the resin is sa- turated with minerals, it's auto- matically regenerated. Water softeners are practically main- tenance-free.
